Glittery & Greatly Girly Thoughts on Legally Blonde Musical: the Search for the Next Elle Woods

Legally Blonde the Musical: The Search for the Next Elle Woods

Legally Blonde the Musical: The Search for the Next Elle Woods is over now, but you can still watch it on MTV.com. So I’ve been watching the show online as it streams, they have all of the episodes. It’s girly fun in TV form that I enjoy (not the dirty kind of ‘girly fun’ – hush, you).

What girly girl never wanted to be Elle Woods? Pink is fun and you have to admit it. I was always proud that I hopped on the Tiffany’s trend revival of the heart bracelet and necklace before the movie came out. (Suck an egg, posers!) So I had them before the time the movie came out and was over wearing them when everyone was crazy about wearing them like a uniform of jangly gems. Anyway, it’s always oddly thrilling when you seek out something and recognize it as great before everyone else is saying how much they love it. I do that a lot, so I may see if i can develop my apparent (amazing) psychic abilities.

Fact!: Haylie Duff was the host of this reality TV show, and I pretty much CANNOT take her seriously. She scraped fame off of her sister and she still doesn’t do very well. And, can we say the horrible truth? She has a very weird horse face. :X Plus, there’s the major annoying factor of her that just kind of seeps from her pores. So yea, eh. I wonder if she wanted the role but they wouldn’t give it to her.

The judges for the show were Paul Canaan, Heather Hach (who looks like Bones TV star Emily Deschanel) and Bernard Tesley. The winner was Bailey Hanks, although I think Autumn Hurlbert should have won (pretty unfortunate last name, though). Rhiannon Hansen, Lauren Zakrin, Natalie Lander, and Emma Zaks were also close contenders. Emma Zaks looked SO so so like Reese Witherspoon.

Bailey Hanks, the winner.

Haylie Duff is NOT Elle Woods

Autumn later went blonde.

Emma, not Reese Witherspoon.

I’d scent this blog posting like Elle Woods scented her resume in the first movie, but that’s kind of impossible. I would like to randomly note that I recently purchased a wonderful, totally cheap, candle with a Moroccan Rose scent. It came in handy since I haven’t had power (electricity that is, I always have my psychic powers) since Sunday night! Ah, it was horrible. I did a lot of reading, attended a bonfire, communed with nature (I befriended a seagull AND a caterpillar), and decided I’d like to be a Zen Buddhist.
